How
do I remove a grey squirrel from my loft or attic space without harming
the squirrel ?

Use
The Trap Man live catch squirrel trap loft kit, which contains all that's
needed to catch your squirrel.

The
kit contains a squirrel trap long enough to capture all the squirrel without
harming it but small enough to easily fit through your loft hatch, a small
torch (with batteries) to inspect the squirrel trap and find your way around your
loft in the dark, a pair of gauntlet gloves to handle the trap while you
get it down from the loft, our own special squirrel attractant bait and
instructions.remember The Trap Man gives you email help for as long as you own the trap, just quote your invoice number when requesting help.

First
find where the squirrel is entering your loft space, it's normally
through a hole in the soffit board or a gap between the slates and the
barge board just behind the gutter. Don't fill or block off the hole untill
you're certain your squirrel's not in residence, it'll only make some
more hole's to get back out or might die of starvation trying to escape,
ruining your underfelt or possibly chewing through your wiring in it's
frantic search for an escape route

Placing
The Trap Man Squirrel Trap, find a suitable flat board in the loft
close to where the squirrel activity has been noticed, make sure the Trap
Man Squirrel Trap is stable on the board well away from any loft insulation,
rock wool can prevent the treadle on The Trap Man Squirrel trap operating
fully. The Trap Man squirrel trap can be fixed to the outside of your
home over the squirrel's entrance / exit hole. The Squirrel Trap will
operate vertically, horizontally and even at an angle. it's flush fitting
door enables The Squirrel trap to be fitted flush to the squirrel's exit
hole

Setting
The Trap Man Squirrel Trap.Place thumb on lever to right of
cage (cage door facing you) press firmly down this will unlock and open
door Place you left hand inside the door opening and grasp the setting
rod attatched to the treadle, place the end of the setting rod just through
the open part at the base of the door, remove your left hand and
release pressure on the spring with your right thumb. The door should
be suspended by the setting bar
The trap is now set and requires baiting just behind the treadle
or on the treadle itself, you can use peanut butter, snicker bar, nuttella,
chocolate or even dry cat food works too. Place a paper clip on the edge
of the treadle to hold dry food on or stop moist food being licked off
Raise the carrying handle clear of the trap to prevent your fingers
being bitten by the captured animal

Catching
the squirrel. Once your squirrel is trapped in the Trap-Man humane
live catch squirrel trap it must be removed as quickly as possible to
prevent stress to the squirrel. Wear heavy gauntlet
type work gloves while handling the squirrel and trap. Be prepared
to listen to a lot of screaming from the squirrel and your spouse. The
captured squirrel is not going to be happy and it's going to let you know
it's not !
